Displace means to move something from its current position or location. It can refer to physical objects, like moving furniture in a room, but it can also refer to abstract ideas, like displacing an old tradition with a new one. Displacement can also refer to the movement of people, such as when refugees are forced to leave their homes. In all cases, the idea is to move something away from a previous spot.
